.B \-pvr <option1:option2:...> (PVR only)
This option tunes various encoding properties of the PVR capture module.
-The Hauppauge WinTV PVR\-150/250/350/500 and all IVTV based cards are known
-as PVR capture cards.
+It has to be used with any hardware MPEG encoder based card supported by the
+V4L2 driver.
+The Hauppauge WinTV PVR\-150/250/350/500 and all IVTV based
+cards are known as PVR capture cards.
+Be aware that only Linux 2.6.18 kernel
+and above is able to handle MPEG stream through V4L2 layer.
For hardware capture of an MPEG stream and watching it with
MPlayer/MEncoder, use 'pvr://' as a movie URL.
